I ran around the area near my apartment today and happened to find an interesting group of statues. They are in Bolotnay Square—a place where significant protests against V. Putin’s proposed, and now realized, third term as president, occurred in 2012. The statues are quite remarkable.

The title is, “Children are the victims of adults’ vices”. When they were unveiled in 2001, Mihail Chermiakin’s work was quite a shocker for the city. One Moscovite told me that she would think that such a thing would appear now rather than so long ago. They are absurd statues designed to illustrate society’s significant troubles. The author wanted people to stop and think about the damage that is done to children by adult excesses.

Drug addiction:

Prostitution is a funky frog woman with a significant chest.

The thief is a pig-faced ‘gentleman’ in a tuxedo. It shows pigs in a completely unfair light, I believe.

I love alcoholism with his NFL-sized belly

Ignorance is a donkey with a jester’s stick. The first thing I thought of was the Democratic Party. It seems that anyone who would create such a statue would not intentionally damage the character of the Democrats--but maybe he has a sense of humor.

The idea irresponsible science is my favorite, calling out people who deny climate change; we all need to realize that if all us do our part to change the course of environmental degradation, we will make progress.

The centerpiece of the demonstration is ‘indifference’ with her fingers in her ears and her defiant refusal to admit the obvious. The root of all evil.
